Iwan and Manuela Wirth, Luis Laplace, Piet Oudolf and other key figures tell the story of our new art center on Illa del Rei in the port of Mahon.
A destination to experience art in connection with education, nature and conservation, Hauser & Wirth Menorca is located on an island in Mahon harbour, comprising eight galleries in the repurposed 18th century outbuildings of a naval hospital. ‘Art is at the heart, but it is also a deeply inclusive model’, says Iwan Wirth. ‘It is a holistic concept that, by nature, is community-based.’
With an exhibition space spanning eight galleries, our newest location also features an outdoor sculpture trail with works by Louise Bourgeois, Eduardo Chillida, Joan Miró and Franz West, a garden designed by Piet Oudolf incorporating native perennials and planting suited to the Mediterranean climate, and on-site restaurant Cantina serves seasonal and local produce. Focusing on both education and sustainability, we run a series of educational activities to engage both the local community and visitors with contemporary art through screenings, talks, and workshops.
